1. Open Blender. Install the commercial plugin through Elgato Marketplace. No separate Python or Node installation.

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:30.000
2. Open companion. Select an action in Stream Deck. Its inspector opens the companion ZIP folder. Keep the ZIP unextracted.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:45.000
3. Install from Disk. Blender Preferences → Get Extensions → menu → Install from Disk. Choose blender-studio-bridge-1.2.0.zip and enable it.

00:00:45.000 --> 00:01:00.000
4. Allow the local connection. Enable Allow local Stream Deck connection in Blender. Select the intended instance in Stream Deck.

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:15.000
5. Choose Start and check. Open the matching Start profile. Check connection reads Blender state without changing the scene.

00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:30.000
Assign your first parameter. Read properties → target → category → element → property → behavior. Save, then press or turn to execute.

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:45.000
Keep versions together. The companion update is manual. Existing legacy shortcuts and customized profiles keep their settings.

00:01:45.000 --> 00:02:00.000
Recover a disconnection. Check Blender, extension, permission and instance. No session alone does not identify a single cause.

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:15.000
Python stays optional. Importing a profile never runs its code. Advanced Python requires approval of the exact script inside Blender.

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:30.000
Try the supplied scenes. Use the example folder for Blender 4.5 or 5.2. Start with Geometry Nodes, modeling or camera/render.
